Overview
- CBS removed an October Peter Attia interview with Norah O’Donnell from a '60 Minutes' rerun scheduled for Sunday, replacing it with another piece.
- Justice Department files released last week reference Attia roughly 1,700 times and include mid‑2010s emails showing crude banter and friendly exchanges with Epstein.
- Attia posted an apology on X saying he is ashamed of the emails, denies any criminal conduct, and says he never flew on Epstein’s plane or visited his island.
- David’s Protein said Attia stepped down as chief science officer, and he has been removed from the company’s website.
- CBS has not announced a decision on Attia’s status, with outlets reporting internal debate between Paramount leadership and CBS News chief Bari Weiss following his Jan. 27 contributor announcement.
